babyshambles
Since the birth of The Libertines in 2002, Pete Doherty has been a key figure in the music industry in Britain. Unfortunately, over the past 5 years, it’s become for all the wrong reasons. After being kicked out of his own band, The Libertines, Pete went on to work on his side project ‘Babyshambles’. In [...]
Ladyfuzz
Despite no longer existing I love the aesthetic of Ladyfuzz. I especially love this Bloc Party remix, probably the only decent remix those guys have ever done. It is fucking awesome! Ladyfuzz were a three piece band that got together through an ad in NME. I like to think the ad read “looking for creative [...]
Crystal Castles Australian Tour Dates!
A while ago I was talking to someone about the Parklife and Never Ever Land line-ups (I can’t really remember who… Oops that’s irrelevant…) and how completely rad it was going to be to see all those amazing international acts, and I told whomever it was that if I ever get to see Crystal Castles [...]
Klaxons were…
…freaking fucking amazing. First of all the Forum in Melbourne is an amazing venue. I don’t think I will be going to any more Festival Hall gigs, the choice of venue is so important to the look, sound and feel of the concert. The stand-out tracks for me were Gravity’s Rainbow, It’s Not Over Yet [...]
It’s A Rave Dave
Ok so it took me a while to get around to writing this, but whatever. Just over a week ago Trash Fashion released their follow-up EP to THE cult classic, It’s A Rave Dave. The new one features the track Mom & Daddy, and while I have to admit I did fear for the boys, [...]
Fresh Banger Friday
I thought I would put up a couple of Fresh Bangers on the site this Friday. You should really put some new music into your sets, dude. First up is this insane David Rubato track featuring Teki Latex. You know I love Teki Latex. And now David Rubato rates very highly in my little black [...]
Do The B.L.A.K.E.
So Blake Miller is an absolutely awesome DJ and all of a sudden everyone knows it. It’s not enough that he’s the frontman of one of my favourite dance-punk bands, Moving Units, who released their long long long-awaited sophomore album, Hexes For Exes on October 9th (a month or so after the entire thing was [...]
What’s that? You want to hear another D.A.N.C.E. remix?
It’s like they never stop! But seriously, unless you are a total pussy this is the remix you will be playing this weekend. It is awesome. Actually, cancel that. I could really go a week month without hearing that fucking track. I am only putting it up here for the sake of continuity in posting [...]
Klaxons – As Above, So Below (French version)
Superlaser are reporting that this French version of As Above, So Below is due to be released with the original and the Justice version mentioned previously on this site. Again, my head explodes. Klaxons – As Above, So Below (French version) *swoon* -nek
Lillica Libertine…Is Quite Clearly A Boy?
Are you in Does It Offend You, Yeah?’s top friends? Didn’t think so. Lillica Libertine is. Because he’s rad. Seriously. This guy runs distortions over his distortions. His riffs are phenomenal, and if you play his tracks loud enough, it’ll probably make your ears bleed (in the good way…). And, excluding the vocals, this 18-year-old [...]
Girltalk and Tay Zonday
Who would have thought these two people would ever be on the same bill? Well I guess it isn’t totally out of the question I am just amazed to hear that Tay Zonday (of the Chocolate Rain meme) is now playing out at clubs. The gig was in Minneapolis and this video looks underwhelming compared [...]
Klaxons Land In Australia
It feels like this show has been in the making for a fucking long time. First off Modular puts on their “Outrageously Unfair Christmas Party” which kept NYPC and Klaxons locked down to Sydney and Melbourne (I was in Perth). Then Jamie goes and breaks his foot. But this weekend I will see them [...]
CFCF – Justice Health Crystal Castles Remixes
CFCF must have absolutely no spare time. And no, I’m not talking about the Canadian Family Camping Federation. Or the Caring For Carcinoid Foundation. I’m talking about Mike Silver, aka CFCF, the nineteen-year-old Canadian-born DJ/producer who seems to be just about everywhere at the moment. He remixes like a BANDIT, his current portfolio containing tracks [...]
Yet Another Fucking D.A.N.C.E. Remix
Jesus Christ! Just when you thought everyone was done with it along comes Jacques Lu Cont to create a banging remix of Justice’s D.A.N.C.E. And he does a fucking good job as well. If you are going to download any D.A.N.C.E. remixes this season, make this your track of choice. Justice – D.A.N.C.E. (Jacque Lu [...]
Narctrax’s Brand New HEALTH Remix
